APPLy Subsystem
Frequency
l The APPLy command must be appropriate for the function. For example, APPL:SQU40MHz results in a "Data out
of range" error and the instrument sets the frequency to its maximum frequency for a square wave.
Offset Voltage
l The relationship between offset voltage and output amplitude is shown below. Vmax is the maximum peak voltage
for the selected output termination (5 V for a 50 Ω load or 10 V for a high-impedance load).
|Voffset| < Vmax - Vpp/2
If the specified offset voltage is not valid, the instrument will adjust it to the maximum DC voltage allowed with the
specified amplitude. From the remote interface, a "Data out of range" error will also be generated.
l Limits Due to Output Termination: The offset range depends on the output termination setting. For example, if
you set offset to 100 mVDC and then change output termination from 50 Ω to "high impedance," the offset volt-
age displayed on the front panel doubles to 200 mVDC (no error is generated). If you change from "high imped-
ance" to 50 Ω, the displayed offset voltage will be halved. See OUTPut[1|2]:LOAD for details.
